Highlands Natural Resources是一家在伦敦上市的自然资源公司,近日该公司宣布其已与LLC Renegade石油和天然气公司签署了购买协议,油田位置位于科罗拉多阿拉帕霍县,协议签署后该公司将拥有Niobrara页岩地层六口水平井的开采权。
通过此次交易,Highlands将向Renegade支付50万美元,包括首付款25万美元,支付完成后将拥有两口井的开采权益,一旦开始钻探第三口井,剩下的25万美元必须开始支付。在所有Highlands开发的油井中,Highlands将保留100%的开采权益(全面负责钻井和运营工作)并将得到80%的收入。根据农场协议,扣除的收入包括科罗拉多州及Renegade的矿区使用费。
协议谈判的同时,Highlands与几个合作伙伴也展开了关于油田的融资和发展的讨论。这些讨论现在正逐渐步入正轨,Highlands有信心可以在2016年底开始钻探作业。除非有担保并取得令人满意的条款和第三方融资,以资助钻井以及所有相关测试及其他活动产生的费用,否则Highlands是没有义务进行油井钻探作业的。进一步的声明将在适当的晚些时候发布。
ConocoPhillips租赁合同划定了Denver Julesburg盆地购入区生产排名中最富有成效的水平井。附近的钻井为购入区的油井提供了重要的分析数据和油井生产力预测数据。具体来说,Highlands能够参考Conoco公司的设计、方法和下降曲线模型进行分析。Conoco在租约内多次进行油井钻探作业,包括购入协议中规定的区域以及相邻的区域。在开采的前六个月,Conoco石油附近大部分拥有最优化钻井技术的水平井产量都在5万至10万桶之间。

Highlands Natural Resources, the London-listed natural resources company, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a farm-in agreement in Arapahoe County, Colorado with Renegade Oil & Gas Company, LLC which will allow it to drill up to six horizontal wells in acreage prospective for the Niobrara shale formation.
The transaction entails a US$500,000 total payment from Highlands to Renegade, comprising an initial payment of US$250,000 for the right to drill the first two wells and a second payment, on commencement of drilling of the third well, of US$250,000 for the following four wells. In all wells drilled by Highlands on the farm-in acreage, Highlands will retain a 100% working interest (full responsibility for drilling and operating costs) and will receive 80% of revenue generated by these wells. The deductions from revenue comprise the royalty interests due to the State of Colorado and to Renegade under the farm-in agreement.
In parallel with negotiating the farm-in agreement, Highlands has also commenced discussions with several industry partners regarding the joint financing and development of the farm-in acreage. These discussions are now at an advanced stage such that Highlands believes that it can commence drilling by the end of 2016. Highlands is not obliged to drill any well unless and until it has secured, on terms satisfactory to it, third party financing to fund the drilling of such well and all associated testing, completion and other activities and expenses. A further announcement will be made in due course.
The farm-in acreage is bordered by ConocoPhillips leases that have been delineated by producing horizontal wells ranking among the most productive in the Denver Julesburg Basin. The presence of nearby production provides important data for analysing and projecting the productivity of the wells planned in the farm-in acreage. Specifically, Highlands is able to use Conoco's well designs, completion methods and decline curves as analogs for its planned farm-in wells. Conoco has drilled numerous productive wells in its leases north of the farm-in acreage, including wells drilled within the township of the farm-in agreement as well as adjacent townships. The majority of Conoco's nearby horizontal wells with optimized completion techniques produced between 50,000 to 100,000 barrels of oil in their first six months of production.

Ikon Science, a software and service provider to the oil and gas industry, is in the process of running various initiatives under a 'Geo's between Jobs' program aimed to support industry professionals affected during the downturn in the current market. In late June 2016, Ikon Science Americas invited the first group of twelve winners into the Ikon office for RokDoc training. Following the class, they will have free use of a three-month license, with data and support. It is intended that they learn new rock physics skills and broaden their CVs.
Michael Hines, Senior Geoscientist and Proven Oil Finder from Houston, was one of the winning applicants. In a blog post on LinkedIn Michael wrote 'Ikon Science really should be congratulated for running a 3-day geophysical software training course for 'Geos between Jobs' from their Houston office.
The excellent RokDoc modeling package training was for 12 geoscientists in transition. It covered rock physics log analysis, QI, Gassmann substitution, synthetics, wavelet estimation, tuning models and 2D model building.'
In the interest of delivering this opportunity to more geoscientists, Ikon Science has set August dates for the next courses in Houston (now full), London, and Malaysia. Ideally, this initiative will make it to the Middle East, Australia, Asia and beyond: Ikon Science would be open to hearing from organizations that would be able to donate training facilities (room with computers) to the cause.
A further part of the 'Geos between Jobs' program includes an open invitation for job seekers to in-house Ikon Science client events. Ikon Science staff share expertise and showcase technology, workflows or ideas. Geo's between Jobs can use the opportunity to network, learn new things and of course enjoy Ikon's famous hospitality.
The final offering under the initiative is to ensure that no seats are left empty on the company's public software or theory courses. Once running a course is economically viable, spare places are to be donated to the 'Geo's between Jobs' program. Availability of places and how to apply will be posted on Ikon Science's LinkedIn page as and when they arise.

The world’s largest crude oil refinery, on the western coast of the Indian state of Gujarat, is spread over 3,035 hectares and has the capacity to process 1.2 million barrels per day (bpd).
Through this sprawling network of pipes and metal structures, crude oil – much of which comes from the Middle East – is refined into products such as petrol, diesel, kerosene used for cooking, jet fuel for airplanes and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), a household and industrial fuel. These products are then distributed across the country and exported globally.
India has rapidly expanded its capacity to refine crude oil over the past decade and the country has become a major centre for petroleum refining. And it is continuing to grow the sector.
There are plans to build a vast refinery in the state of Maharashtra, to be developed by the India Oil Corporation, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation and Bharat Petroleum, all state-controlled refiners. With a planned capacity of 1.2 million bpd, it is set to rival the Reliance plant. The first phase, which will have the capacity to refine 800,000 bpd, is projected to cost more than 1 trillion rupees (Dh54.6bn).

The well has been logged and 25 sidewall cores were taken from the different pay zones. The well has been cased and cemented in preparation for a near term fracing and completion.
'We are encouraged with the initial scientific data from the logs as it correlates very well with the offset Davis Bros. Harris Est. #1 well from a pay, porosity, and resistivity perspective,' stated Rich Masterson, Torchlight's Consulting Geologist. 'In addition, we have some preliminary data from the CMR and Lithoscanner log analysis and as expected, the results are showing that the rock qualities in this Flying B Ranch #1 well are very similar to the wells drilled in the Wolfberry formation (a name coined to indicate the Permian Basin Shale play including comingled production from the Wolfcamp, Dean and Spraberry formations). We encountered over 400 feet of pay zone and have identified at least two horizontal targets. The Wolfcamp A&B, the Dean, the Leonard, and the Spraberry formations are all present and showing as potential completion targets. The zones have low clay content and high organic content.'
'Next steps are to evaluate all of the scientific data gathered and determine which intervals to frac and the best frac design to stimulate optimal production results,' stated Will McAndrew III, COO of Torchlight. 'We are excited to begin this phase of our Hazel Project development. Once we have established oil production, we will plan additional vertical wells for control purposes and a horizontal development plan.'

NEW YORK (Bloomberg) -- Southwestern Energy Co.’s revival of its dormant drilling program may be the beginning of the end for the U.S. natural gas rally.
The explorer’s plan to operate five rigs by the end of September will unleash more supply from shale basins, threatening the recovery, according to Bloomberg Intelligence. Southwestern had halted drilling for the first half of the year as the company sought to strengthen its balance sheet, recently returning a single rig to northeast Appalachia.
Southwestern’s drilling restart “may pressure supply-demand balances and threaten the nascent price recovery,” Piazza said in a note to clients Friday, calling Southwestern’s revised guidance "an ominous sign for natural gas market fundamentals."

(卡尔加里,彭博社)Precision Drilling公司CEO Kevin Neveu表示:一旦原油价格反弹,公司就着手开拓科威特和其它中东国家的市场,以减小对北美市场的依赖性。
Neveu在接受彭博社电视采访时说:截止今年年底,加拿大油气服务提供商在科威特的在运行钻机数量为5台,其营业收入是北美市场的3倍,但必须在油价回升后才能进行业务扩张。
Neveu还表示:“长期来看,公司在科威特市场能够增加10到15台钻机,在沙特阿拉伯和库尔德斯坦也存在增长点,但当前45美元/桶的油价还不值得进行市场拓张。”
过去一年Precision Drilling公司缩减业务以减少支出,目前公司在运行钻机60台,但只要油价有所恢复,这个数字可以随时增长到150。
周四公司表示其亏损从今年年初的2980万加元增加到第二季度的5770万加元。收入下降51%,到1.64亿加元左右。股价下跌4.6%,收于5.87加元。

CALGARY, Alberta (Bloomberg) -- Precision Drilling Corp. is eyeing growth in Kuwait and other Middle Eastern countries once crude prices recover as a way to reduce dependency on North American markets, CEO Kevin Neveu said.
The Canadian oil-service provider will have five rigs operating in Kuwait by the end of the year, Neveu said in an interview with Pamela Ritchie on Bloomberg TV. The equipment deployed there will generate about three times as much revenue as rigs in North America, he said. But the expansion will have to wait until crude prices, currently hovering around $45/bbl, rise further.
“Long term we see Kuwait as a good growth market” with between 10 to 15 rigs in operation for the company, he said. Other markets with opportunities for expansion include Saudi Arabia and Kurdistan, he added. “At $45, it’s just not good enough” to see growth in those markets.
Precision Drilling has scaled back its operations as customers reduced spending in the past year. The company is currently operating 60 rigs and could boost that number to 150 with “virtually” no new capital spending as a recovery takes hold, he said.
The company on Thursday said its loss widened to C$57.7 million ($44 million), or 20 cents a share, in the second quarter, from C$29.8 million, or 10 cents, in the year-earlier period. Revenue fell 51% to about C$164 million. The shares fell 4.6% to C$5.87 at the close in Toronto.
